this was very carefully arranged, so
that they could be again, removed
without any damage to the chair, and
they have been so removed. tits true
also that considerable portion of the
chair was slightly darkened. That to

THE SPEED OF ENGLISH RAILWAY
TRAINS.

The speed of the English railway
system has always been greatly ex-
aggerated in the United States. You
constantly hear there of trains being
run in England, as common thing, at
the rate of sixty miles an hour. On
the average their trains are much
slower than ours. Their local trains
are simply denominations on account of
the slowness of their speed and their
long delays at stations. The average
train in England does not run above
thirty miles an hour. Their tracks and
roadbeds are better than ours on the
average, but their cars are SO much
more uncomfortable that the superiority
of their roadbeds does not compensate.
Their tracks, however, are no better
than are found upon some of our trunk
lines, such as the Pennsylvania.

4 LEGEND OF MONKEYS AyD STONES.
Prince Carl, Of Sweden and Norway,
when starting out from Hyderabad,
India, on a tiger-hunt in 1888, was
struck by the scenery about the city,
where the undulating ground is
strewed with huge blocks of stone, "as
if they had been tossed hither and
thither by Nature in some capricious
mood. Some Of the blocks are piled
upon each other in such manner as to
cause a lively imagination to fancy them
giants and trolls barring the way. Ac-
cording to Indian folklore, these
blocks were brought hither, some four
thousand years ago, in this manner:
The monkeys, which in the earliest of
times in great numbers inhabited the
lands beyond the Himalayas seized on
the remarkable idea of building q
bridge between the mainland and
Ceylon, and, headed by their leaders,
they left their settlements in great
numbers, for the south, CARRYING with
them from their mountains materials
for their gigantic bridge. But the
road became too long for them, and
they were obliged, on reaching the spot
where Hyderbad now stands, to throw
their loads away, and here they lie to-
davn
